Carmel Del Mar School Modernization Project

The Carmel Del Mar School Modernization Project is a facility enhancement initiative led by the Del Mar Union School District in San Diego, California, aimed at upgrading critical infrastructure and learning environments without altering student enrollment, staffing, or campus circulation. The project includes comprehensive improvements such as new roofing and HVAC systems, interior and exterior painting, sewer system upgrades, and full ADA accessibility compliance. Learning studios will be modernized with new whiteboards, tackboards, carpeting, and casework, while technology infrastructure across the campus will be expanded and updated. Key spaces including the Innovation Center (library), Multi-Use Room—with a potential expansion of up to 1,000 square feet—and the front office will undergo significant interior renovations to better support educational activities. Temporary portable classrooms, numbering fewer than ten, may be deployed during construction and will be fully removed upon completion. The project is being funded through state resources and is proceeding under California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) categorical exemptions that cover minor alterations, rehabilitation of existing facilities, small structure replacements, and infrastructure upgrades. All work is confined to existing building footprints, with no new construction beyond the possible extension of the Multi-Use Room. The project location is 12345 Carmel Park Drive, San Diego, CA 92130, and oversight is led by Chris Delehanty, Assistant Superintendent for Business Services, who serves as the primary point of contact. No federal contract clauses, procurement evaluation factors, pricing details, or contractor representations are included in the documentation, indicating this is a state-funded public works project administered directly by the school district with no competitive solicitation or federal acquisition framework applied.
